Men in their 40s, what’s one piece of advice for men in their 20s?
  • I don't know if this goes for all guys. Your balls will kinda drop again at some stage. If you have a desk job you could end up sitting on them for a while before realising what's happened. Adjust the way you sit, what you wear down there.

  • What's the best way to share videos on lemmy?
  • I did a test of a longer video (10ish minutes). I downloaded it with NewPipe at 360p. It gave me a file just under 13mb. Not sure if catbox does its own compression when you upload.

    Here's the results.

    What's the best way to share videos on lemmy?
  • I've used Catbox with success before, but only for very short videos. Nothing like a video essay.

  • Low Levels of Aussie Zone association with Lemmy in Search.
  • I think there is still a 7 day delay between az and lw and this has a big affect of the number of people that engage with az.

    Basically if I post something on az, and then someone from lw comments on it, then their comment wont federate for 7 days. If I reply to them it will take another 7 days to reach them. It's kind of like communicating with far off satellites or spacecraft in space without having to send anything into space.

  • What are some good name suggestions for the rebranding of OpenSuse?
  • @[email protected] @[email protected] The beauty of these options is that pronunciations will continue to differ the way folks pronounce OpenSUSE differently.

    Is OSOS pronounced as oh-sos or os-os?

    Is OSOSOS pronounced as os-os-os or as oh-sos--sos or as oh-so--sos?

    Is OOOSSS pronounced as ooze or as oo-ss or as o-se?

  • What are some good name suggestions for the rebranding of OpenSuse?
  • If you shorten OpenSUSE to OS, then add OS to the end (shorthand for operating system), you get OSOS.

    Job done.

  • Sucks that Treevan is gone. Thanks for saving all this.

  • Melbourne public housing towers demolition to go ahead despite residents’ class action
  • Some social housing if I'm reading it correctly. Even then social housing is usually still privatised housing. So the amount of public housing could well be zilch.

  • Instance blocked
  • I totally forgot aussie.zone admins get these reports. When I report a post or comment from another instance do admins from both instances receive them? I'll be a bit reluctant to report stuff from other instances if it means aussie.zone admins have to deal with the extra work. Not that I've reported anything much else lately.

  • I was wondering if the language settings in a user's profile meant that they cannot see your posts. I enabled Greek but it doesn't seem to have made any difference.

  • is it normal that I need to apply more sunscreen to certain parts of my body?
  • It's better to be safe than sorry. Apply sunscreen often and all over. Appearances are only skin deep. Also spray-on sunscreen is junk. Use a liquid sunscreen that is a minimum 50+ SPF.

    www.smh.com.au City of Sydney backs boycott of Israel, in bid to add pressure for ceasefire

    The state’s wealthiest council will now review any investments and contracts with companies that might be involved in “human rights abuses in Palestine”.

    City of Sydney backs boycott of Israel, in bid to add pressure for ceasefire

    Internet Archive link.

    The City of Sydney council will consider scrapping its contracts with companies linked to Israel, including a printing agreement with Hewlett Packard, after Lord Mayor Clover Moore supported a renewed push from the boycott, divestment and sanctions (BDS) movement.

    Moore and her independent team backed a Greens motion on Monday night calling for the state’s wealthiest council to audit divestments that had or could be made to ensure it did not invest in or profit from human rights violations, “including the illegal occupation of the settlements in Palestinian territories, and the supply of weapons”.

    www.smh.com.au ‘They were grown men with guns. I was in my PJs’: The crises where police aren’t wanted

    Police should be relegated to back-up support for mental health workers or not respond at all to call-outs for severely mentally ill people in crisis, a major state inquiry has concluded.

    ‘They were grown men with guns. I was in my PJs’: The crises where police aren’t wanted

    Archive link.

    Police should be relegated to back-up support for mental health workers or not respond at all to call-outs for severely mentally ill people in crisis, a major NSW inquiry has concluded.

    But the recommendation fell short of demanding the reform be urgently implemented despite the deaths of more than 50 people during or as a result of police responding to mental health emergencies across NSW in the past five years, and strong support from mental health experts, patients, families and police.

    Day 1: Secrets of Wytch Farm | Time Team (Dorset) 2024

    Laid up in bed this weekend with COVID. First time I've had it as far I know. Over the years all the RATs I did were negative but I finally got a positive this weekend. Yesterday was all fever and headaches.

    This episode feels like the production has worked out the kinks of the new series. It's really great.

    If a dog year is about 7 human years and a cat year (after the first couple years) is about 4 human years than how many human years are there in the average computer year?
